Notes for Farmers.

1t is good plan TO have two sets OF
roosting poles for the hens, and change
them each week, setting them outside when
not in use.
Among the most profitable fowls to be
kept by the farmer or yillager are the Ply
mouth Rocks and Wyandotles. There is
no question abont that.
Nov is the time fowls begin their an
nual uout. The next two months will be
the critical time with all old fowls Feed
nourishing food but feed IN form easiest
digesled.
The best of help in the poultry-yard is
not equal to your own personal supervision
No one can attend to his own business as
well as himself We know by experience
whereof we speak,
The successful poultry man is man of
system. He buys what he needs He
works TO advantage. He loses no time in
looking for anything. He has place for
everything and everything in its place.
Farmers should raise plenty of onions,
carrots, beels, rutabagas, cts, to lay in
stock for winter food for poultry. 1t will
yield ample returns in the replenshment of
the egg basket, as well as good, fat table
delicacies in cold weather.

--Grave serves the same purpose with
birds that teeth do with quadrupeds. An
authority says the grinding in the gizzard
may be heard by placing the ear near the
fowls when their stomachs are full and di-
gestion is taking place. The sound of the
glaye! stones grinding and rubbing against
the grain is especially audible in the case of
ducks that are about half grown, at which
time they are increasing in size very fast,
and digestion proceeds very rapidly.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.
water in Butter.

While salt viii readily dssolye at fifty
degrees, it is not SO easy to get the butter
free from the surplus WATER and it is by
this needless water that much injury is
done to butter. Fiity-fve degrees would
be better. and salt the butter at sixty de-
grees. lVater is a great solvent of cascine
and sugar-traces of which will be found
in all butter however well worked--but
the more water remaining after working
over, the greater the chemical action, and
acting upon the minute particles of curd or
cheese, it becomes rancid by well known
chemical action. Butter should not CON
taip more water than Is necessary to dis
solYc what salt it will retain in the form OF
brine, and fourteen per cent, seems to be
about the amount. More water than this
dilutes the brine, and defeats by so much
the object of the use of salt in butter-to
preserve the cascine from chemical change
nor can this be accomplished saye in u
temperature below fifty degrees In the
usual creamery butter, and all that made
by cold setting, the maker often unnten-
tionslly leaves more than twenty per cent,
of water in butter, moi understanding that
butter made from cream slightly acid, re-
tains more moisture than that made from
sourer cream. The souring breaks up the
texture of the cream, and the butter separ-
ates better from the butter milk Than all
the butter-maker needs todo is TO chmn
the ripened cream at 4 lower temperature
than is needed for sour, to use salt each
time in washingi it free from buttermillS,
and when the regulation amount of salt is
used to season the butter, let ii dissolve,
and then by gently working and packing,
know that the butter is free from any excess
of water above fourteen per cent. Then if
kept below fifty degrees, and away from
the Influence OF the air butter made from
soured milk must keep well.

emigrate. The substitution of

competition Of English ships has
driven many men out of employ
